NATIONAL ASSOCIATION of EDUCATIONAL BROADCASTERS 14 Gregory Hall Urbana, Illinois TO: ALL NAEB ACTIVE AND ASSOCIATE MEMBERS FROM: Harry J. Skornia, Executive Directoi DATE: March 22, 1955 SUBJECT: ITALIA PRIZE ANNOUNCEMENT (Prix Italia) The NAEB, as a participating member, is again this year eligible to enter the Prix Italia contest. Therefore, if any NAEB members have musical, dramatic or rmisico- dramatic programs which might qualify urder the conditions set forth in the attached, they should send their entry to Seymour Siegel, chairman of the NAEB International Relations Committee, NOT LATER THAN May 1, 1955* The program must be recorded on tape, at 15 inches per second, and must be accompanied by the statement of permis¬ sions from the author, which is described in detail in the attached. Since the NAEB will be represented on the Documentary Jury this year, we cannot sub¬ mit any documentary entries. This year a prize in television has also been added and applicable sections from Appendix 3 (television prize) of the Prix Italia announcement are included in the attached. The NAEB entries will be selected, from those submitted, by the NAEB International Relations Committee composed of Seymour Siegel, chairman, Graydon Ausmus, Kathleen Lardie, Burton Paulu, Robert VanDuyn, Marvin Alisky and Lawrence Creshkoff, and Harry Skornia, ex officio. It is suggested that the problem of French translation, like other details set forth in the rules (other than author*s statement of permission), be postponed until such time as the above named committee shall determine which, if any entries will be finally submitted. At that time the committee will call upon the submitting member for whatever assistance is needed in these matters. Following are quoted the applicable sections from the Prix Italia announcement, with paragraph numbers as in the original. HEH/HJS/cr
